A recurring theme throughout my study during ETL401, has been the importance of evidence based practice (Galimi, 2020, May 4) as an ongoing part of the role (Galimi, 2020, March 11) of a teacher librarian (TL). My thinking has evolved during this short space of time, to find ways to promote teacher librarianship (Galimi, 2020, … Continue reading Critical Reflection: Information Literacy, Information Literacy models and the role of the Teacher Librarian
I agree with this as well. I have likened it to how I felt completing the assessment for this course. I went through all of the emotions, including being disappointed at the end as I felt like I hadn’t explored an angle that I had wanted to. Understanding students emotions at different stages of ISP would be … Continue reading 5.3 b: Guided Inquiry Discussion post
When I first started ETL401, I felt overwhelmed as it had been a very long time since I had last undertaken tertiary studies. While I thought that I was a confident user of technology, I have to admit, it wasn’t easy.

Fitzgerald (2016) states that 21st century learners “must be able … Continue reading 21st century learners, Guided Inquiry and BYOD

In this respect … Continue reading Information Literacy & Multiliteracies
One of the reasons I have connected with the Guided Inquiry information literacy model, is I can relate to the feelings within the Information Search Process (ISP). I am experiencing them now while I am trying to understand my assessment for ETL401! It is a rollercoaster of emotions and when you do reflect back at … Continue reading Feeling a little overwhelmed! 9th May 2020
One of the most confusing parts of my assessments is keeping track of my useful sources. I have tried a few different ways – printing out useful journal articles, using Endnote, making notes in a book and on my laptop, but I have always ended up confused. I remember reading something from somewhere…who wrote that? … Continue reading Inquiry log – what a great idea for me!
